manufacturing from single site
Challenge: Anpario manufactures almost all of its output from a single Nottingham site while exporting to over 70 countries, and needed system administration capacity its internal IT function could not cover alone.
Read moreCollapseSolution: Datel implemented Sage X3 and has since delivered upgrades, add-ons, private cloud hosting and its Manage service, which provides an outsourced System Manager function for Sage X3.
Results: The Manage service reduced the task load on Anpario's IT function and gave the team access to Sage X3 expertise on demand. The group has since upgraded to Sage X3 v12 for its production management and handheld device capabilities while opening new operations in Europe.
“The Datel team won't just quickly sort something, they'll take the time to explain how to do it ourselves so that should that query come up again, it's something that we potentially can solve.”Original case study ↗

Challenge: After separating from a former parent company, Colonis Pharma still had its financial services outsourced, limiting independence and visibility. It had to stand up its own finance system on the same fixed date as a migration to a new distribution partner.
Read moreCollapseSolution: Following an RFQ that evaluated three solutions, Colonis selected Sage Intacct with Datel, which configured multi-entity structures, pharmaceutical inventory requirements and complex tax handling through structured discovery sessions.
Results: Sage Intacct went live on 1 March 2024, aligned with the distribution migration. Colonis now owns its financial data outright, runs system-driven month-end processes, and has added new legal entities including the Netherlands, with users rising from approximately 14 to 20.
“I had the vision, but all the puzzle pieces weren't fully formed. The sessions with Datel's consultant really helped bring clarity.”Original case study ↗

Challenge: By 2016 Holroyd Components, a supplier to industries from marine to aerospace, had outgrown Sage 50 and needed both a finance system and an implementation partner that could support it after migration.
Read moreCollapseSolution: Datel migrated the company from Sage 50 to Sage 200 and has since provided account management, support, private cloud hosting and upgrade management.
Results: Holroyd Components continues to run Sage 200 with Datel nearly a decade after migration, developing the system incrementally rather than through further replacements.
“Datel are really knowledgeable in their field, right from research and initial implementation, the level of technical support that we got from actually getting integrated and coming over from Sage 50 was fantastic right through to present day.”Original case study ↗

Spreadsheet reporting has been replaced with dashboards that refresh in real time, bank feeds and payment runs have shortened reconciliations, and credit control collections have moved from manual chasing to a system-driven process with a full audit trail.
Challenge: A long-term structured trading agreement with Shell Energy Europe left Evolve Energy preparing for higher billing volumes and larger customers. Sage 50 struggled with transaction volumes, offered little automation or audit control, and left reporting dependent on Excel.
Read moreCollapseSolution: After reviewing several options, Evolve Energy implemented Sage Intacct with Datel, taking bank feeds, credit control, real-time dashboards and an ongoing Customer Success engagement that adds system enhancements over time.
Results: Spreadsheet reporting has been replaced with dashboards that refresh in real time, bank feeds and payment runs have shortened reconciliations, and credit control collections have moved from manual chasing to a system-driven process with a full audit trail.
“Our growth plans meant we needed systems ready for the future, not just coping with today. Sage 50 couldn't give us that foundation.”Original case study ↗
